Art history encompasses the study of visual objects from the earliest human creations to the contemporary world. We live in an increasingly visual world, and the discipline of art history provides students a framework for critically interacting with that world. Through historical surveys and introduction to critical theory, students are equipped with the skills to recognize and analyze the style, form, and context of objects in isolation and in comparison. At the core of this study is verbal and written fluency in visual literacy. Students will be able to recognize and thoughtfully scrutinize the fundamental relationships between art and production, materials, individual creativity, communication, power, value systems, and culture.

The Drama/Theatre Arts Department offers training, both theoretical and practical, in theatrical production, including performance, technical and business management aspects, as well as the serious study of the development of those aspects from the early Greeks up to the bright lights of Broadway. We believe that the creativity, the personal interaction and the excitement of participating in a performance are highly valuable experiences for any individual. The heightened awareness of beauty and truth are carried on into the later life of the student to perhaps enable him or her to appreciate more fully what is available.

The Department of English faculty subscribes to the idea that the language and literary arts are a basic and a chief way of discovering who we are, especially if “we” is defined broadly to take in the whole of past and present culture as it resides in the English language. We offer students the means of appreciating excellence in the literary language of the past and of developing excellence in their present uses of language. We believe that this experience can enhance a sense of personal identity as that sense is put in relation to “our” manifestations of identity in the past.
